With btc halving, meaning, less btc are rewarded per blocked mined, their future revenue is only bound to go down (even though it may be countered only by a rising btc price).

I just can't see it as a long term play. Short term hold - hell yeah... hold for 5 + years, I am not too sure.. Meanwhile I have set up auto purchase of weekly bitcoin as part of my portfolio just like I do with stocks.
Have to disagree there about miners needing to sell their bitcoins. In fact most miners are now holding their bitcoins. Even after every bitcoin is mined you’ll need the miners for the network. The idea is simple as mining gets harder, price of bitcoin will rise further which itself should make mining still profitable. 5+ year of being vested in miners might not be such a bad idea if you fundamentally think bitcoin price will keep going up.
